Marthe Ngwashi, '03

Marthe is living the American dream. She's the child of African immigrants, has her own law firm in Buffalo and is a proud mother who balanced her career and life challenges so she could give her son the stability and support he needed. She says she came into her own during her time at OCC. "I was in EOP (Educational Opportunity Program) and I got help at the Tutoring Center. My counselors and the faculty saw something in me I didn’t see. They really made a difference.”
